Cell Surface Receptors

A Biological Perspective

  • Chapter
Receptors and Recognition

Part of the book series: Series A ((RERE,volume 1))

Abstract

The genetic code embodies structural and functional potentialities and in differentiated cells the DNA is analogous to a punch tape that has become programmed, by largely unresolved mechanisms, to delineate the cells’ specialised activity. However, in order for this specific potential to be expressed in tune with the dynamic demands of the environment, the biochemical pathways from gene to performance must be in contact with, and receptive to, extracellular signals.
